FIRE SCRIPTURE:
2 Kings 2:11-15 – Christian Standard Bible
11 As they continued walking and talking, a chariot of fire with horses of fire suddenly appeared and separated the two of them. Then Elijah went up into heaven in the whirlwind. 12 As Elisha watched, he kept crying out, “My father, my father, the chariots and horsemen of Israel!”
Elisha Succeeds Elijah
When he could see him no longer, he took hold of his own clothes, tore them in two, 13 picked up the mantle that had fallen off Elijah, and went back and stood on the bank of the Jordan. 14 He took the mantle Elijah had dropped, and he struck the water. “Where is the Lord God of Elijah?” he asked. He struck the water himself, and it parted to the right and the left, and Elisha crossed over.
15 When the sons of the prophets from Jericho who were observing saw him, they said, “The spirit of Elijah rests on Elisha.” They came to meet him and bowed down to the ground in front of him.
MFM Daily Devotional – 28th August 2025: MESSAGE:
When Elijah departed on the chariot of fire, his prophetic protégé, Elisha was disconcolate. His first cry was that of alarm: “My father, my father!!”. But when he came to himself, he realized that the mantle he demanded from on Elijah had fallen.
He picked up this mantle with confidence. With this in his hand, his second cry was that of trust and power in the God of Elijah: “Where is the Lord God of Elijah!”. And with this victorious cry and prophetic action, Elisha successfully divided the Jordan and crossed over and his ministry started in earnest.
The Bible recorded that from this time onward, he became the head of the sons of prophets in the city of Jericho. The sons of the prophets who had been mocking and making jest of him came to bow before him. Not long after this, he went ahead to heal the waters of the city and became an environmental transformer of the town (2 Kings 2:12-22).
What type of cries do you utter when the trials of life come your way? Are you the crybaby type? Are you a murmurer? Are you a complainer? Are you the type that curses man and God when challenges come his way?
As a believer, you need to know that we live in a life that is full of trials, troubles and tribulations (John 16:33).
Our Lord Jesus passed through this way too and He has made us to realize that our afflictions in life are temporary if we can learn to trust him. He also promised that we will not be yoked with any challenge that is too much for us to shoulder.
There is a lesson for you to learn from the case of Elisha. In the moments of crisis, refrain from crying and whining like a baby. Rather, gird up your loins, look up with faith at the storms of life and cry: “Where is the Lord God of Elijah!”. I believe you will make the better choice today.
PRAYER POINTS:

5. Every bitterness in my life, be made sweet, by the power in the blood of Jesus.
6. I decree and declare that all my enemies will come bowing down at my feet, in the Name of Jesus.
